REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE PERIOD I JANUARY 2023 TO 31 MARCH 2024
Achievements and performance
This year has been successful in respect of improvements around the two main challenges of the previous year which
were the Catering and Fundraising functions of the Charity which are discussed later in this report. The League has
struggled to meet its Business Plan targets for properties and tenants despite a eood start. This was mainly due to the
unexpected loss of a number of flats due to the landlord requesting their return so they could be sold. This position
was exacerbated by the1055 of four more flats as a result of Walsall Council's refusal to accept a specific mental health
diagnosis. An adjustment was agreed for the target for thi5 year to reflect the economy and housing market
conditions which were outside the control of the League.
Cannock Hospital Café ha5 taken an upturn due to increased footfall with the hospital becomin8 a Community
Oiagnostic Centre with a plan to work towards 7 day5 week theatre schedule. The hospital management requested
whether the Café could offer their Staff sub5idised cooklchill meals and following a risk and benefit analysis a pilot
was introduced. The Café earnin8s are now just over pre pandemic levels and anticipated to rise with the hospital
bu5ine55 model around growth. The Coffee Bar has reopened although footfall there is poor tompared to the Café
however with the growth of clinics this could well change and will be kept under review.
Of the four League catering outlet5, Cannock Café is the most successful and whilst the Stafford Coffee Bar manage5 to
break even, St George's Hospltal retail does not. The decision was made to continue serving St George's Hospital in
the context of the social good and the benefits ot a good relationship with the hospital and our other contract5 Wlth
them.
The Fundraising Committee has been very active with their stall at Penkridge Market, bucket collections at
Supermarkets and also supported the Rotary Father Xmas Collection at Te5co in Heath Hayes. Thi5 has resulted in
them exceeding their target of £5,000 successfully with a total of £7,000.
The Volvnteer T35k Group has identified a new role for volunteers. With support from the hospital management, it
was agreed to introduce a pilot for a -meet & Greet" service at Cannock Chase Hospital. Volunteers are slowly
returning to the League after their absence during Covid. The League's Social media presence, reported to the Board
quarterly, is growing steadily and the Board have requested a social media strategy to further develop the image and
reach of the League.
An important event was held this year to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the League at the Gatehouse Theatre in
Stafford led by a Trustee and Social Media Support. The aim was to showcase the services provided by the League to
an invited audience to encourage landlords and donations. A number of presentations were delivered followed by a
Radio campaign to encourage landlords to work with the League. A donation of £5.000 wa5 made at this event on
behalf of the British Legion for the care of veterans who are under the care of the League.
Jane Landick has been appointed as the new Company Secretary. She comes with experience and skills in governance
and legal issues having retired from an NHS Trust and is very welcome.
We continue to use the Charity Commission's Governance Code Framework to audit the level of compliance and
identify gaps in our governance Structure and systems. Our new Company Secretary ha5 agreed to conduct a review
which will be reported in 2024.
The Chief Executive and the Housing Team continue to develop the Supported Housing Service through Inreach and
Outreach Service5. The Inreach Service for St GeorBe's Hospital has now been replaced by the Trust as an outcome of
a service redesign. The hospital has thanked the League for the development of the role.
The aim is to increase the number of properties that are in the charity's ownership over future years as our funds
allow ha5 not changed. We will continue to build on the excellent relationships we have with a number of Registered
Social Landlords to increase the number of properties they are able to allocate to our charity where this is possible.
However, it has been more difficult this year due to the problem5 Outlined in the introduction to this report.

Reserves Policy
It was agreed by the Board to change the policy of unrestricted reserves equal to from six months to five months of
operating expenditure. It was judged that the five month5 would still be sufficient to rnaintain operations should a
Shortfall in income arise and to cover risks and continEencie5 that would require an outlay of expenditure above a
normal level. For reserves in excess of the reserves policy, the Trustee5 will a55e55 the optimal usage of these funds to
enable the charity to maximise its benefits.
The charitie5 total reserves of El,604,64612022 - £1,349,092) at the year-end were in excess of five rnonths. worth of
operating expenditure.
Grant Making Policy

hospitals do inform the League of Friends what projects they wou Id like the donation to go towards. If the donation is
£500 or les5 it is approved by the Chief Execu tive, however if the donation is over £500 then approval is needed from
the Chairman and Treasurer. All donations given must be for the benefit of patients.

surplus. Thi5 Wa5 covered earlier in this report.

doinE so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material
inconslstencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a
material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude
that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report th6t fact. We have nothing
to report in thi5 regard.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF
STAFFORD AND CANNOCK LEAGUE OF HOSPITAL
FRIENDS
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors under Section 15 1 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the
Act and relevant regulation5 made or havinE effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements a5 a whole are free from
material mi5Statement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes
our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a hiEh level of assurance. but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with 15As IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatement5 can arise from
fraud or error ènd are considered material if. individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basi5 of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in
line with our responsibilities, Dutlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including
f raud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below-.
Inspection of board minutes both during and after the reporting period to identify any discussions of
non-compliance;
Communication with management before, during and after the audit fieldwork to confirm instances of
non-compliance,.
Auditing the risk of manaBement override of controls, including through testing journal entrie5 and other
adjustmonts for appropriateness, and evaluation of the bu5ines5 rationale of significant transactions outside the
normal course of business.,
ReviLwing fin3ncial statement disclosures and tesling to supporting documentation lo asse%s compliancp with
applicable law5 and regulations.
Bec3U5o of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not delect all irreF.Lilarities, includin2 thos
leading to ¢1 material misslateinenl In the linancial statements or rion compliance with regulation.
This risk Iricreases
the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the event5 and transactions reflected In the
financia5 statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also
greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment,
forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentalion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial
Reporting Council's website at www.f rc.org.tsk/auditorsrespon5ibilities. This description forms part of our Report of
the Independent Auditors.
